Move the scraper close to the belt, an A4 paper folded is the perfect distance.

If the paper does not fit

Slightly screw loose the screws and move the scraper slightly. Then check the distance again with an unfolded A4 paper.

4. Screw back the 4 screws.​

After screwing back the 4 screws, the A4 paper has to be able to move freely from left to right in between the scraper and the belt. Make sure there is no extra room in between otherwise the insoles might not come off the belt easily.
